obama enjoys a vast majority of support from latinos over mitt romney. a federal appeals court has reversed its own decision finding the army corps of engineers partially liable for the flooding that devastated new orleans during hurricane katrina seven years ago. in march, the court of appeals for the fifth circuit upheld the 2009 ruling that monumental negligence by the army corps of the engineers led to the severe flooding that ravaged new orleans in the aftermath of the storm. the ruling marked the first time the government had been held responsible for any of the flooding that devastated new orleans and could have paved the way for legal action on behalf of thousands of residents. on monday, the court of appeals changed course, ruling the government is immune from liability. a group of environmental activists in northeast texas say they have scaled 80-foot trees and are vowing to remain in an effort to block tree clearing equipment that is making for the southern leg of the controversial keystone xl pipeline. on monday, the eight protesters held a b
